Broken ex-rugby player. Frustrated supporter but a lover of the great game.

I’ll never accuse a rugby player of not caring or trying. But this 1st half Bristol performance has me seriously questioning myself.

@Openside77tkj @HeTalksRugby @EnglandRugby He’s not you know. And I say that as an Englishman. Case could be made for Manny F-W on the wing (when fit) but after that, no one even enters the conversation.

@AndyGoode10 Who you brining in?

[Stuart Hawes @stuartdhawes]

Congrats @Italian_Rugby your boys were top class today.

@footballontnt everyone bloody knows @Wrexham_AFC were in the National League 4YA. You don’t need to keep saying it every 5 seconds.

Italy look so threatening every time they have the ball. You feel like something is about to happen. England look directionless. Ben Earle the only player who looks dangerous ball in hand.

Understand rugby’s a hugely physical game, but they’ve got to sort out the number & length of stoppages that are occurring.

Fair bloody play to Wales. The difference Tandy & his coaching team are making is huge. The results may not yet be coming, but after 3-years of dross, the team now have an identity.

France getting very lucky at scrum time. It’s what’s known as ‘home ground advantage’,

@AndyGoode10 What’s even worse, England looked leaderless. Itoje, Genge, Ford, not one of them took a hold of the team.

[Stuart Hawes @stuartdhawes]

I genuinely don’t know where to start with this English performance.
They look completely lost in every facet of the game.
Congrats to Ireland. Unbelievable performance.

When I saw Marcus Smith trot on I thought, great, Borthwick’s found his nut sack & taken Ford off. The words that came out my mouth when I saw it was Steward going off are unrepeatable.

If Wales keep kicking the ball so aimlessly it’ll be another cricket score win for France.

If only Scotland played like this every week. Fabulous team to watch.

You’re 18 points down & what do England do, kick it! I mean FFS! Players need to take responsibility & change the tactics they’ve been given.

[Stuart Hawes @stuartdhawes]

Scotland deservedly winning but England have been abject.

[Stuart Hawes @stuartdhawes]

Tonight’s game is exactly why these ties should be one off games. Chelsea tried, Arsenal didn’t. Boring spectacle for the neutral.

All well & good Barnesy, but if England need to make a 1-on-1 tackle in the 80th min to win the Grand Slam, Finn Smith’s the man I want on the pitch.
In today’s game, unless you’re completely dominant up front, teams can’t afford luxury players.
